Multiple Sclerosis gets a new address My plan was to collect adventures from my recent move, exaggerate them slightly, add MS to the mix and put them all into one cohesive and humorous blog with a bit of a moral at the end. That’s what I do. But the past month didn’t fall into that … Read more here…
Part 2 of the EMPOWER Study by DxTerity I’m sorry if I mislead you my friends. I didn’t realize it until it was too late. I got my DxTerity EMPOWER Study kit and it didn’t come with the cup of coffee that was shown in the picture posted on my first blog about this project. … Read more here…
MS, packing and stressing “Well we’re movin’ on up To the east side…” I have no idea why this song is stuck in my head. Perhaps it’s because I’m in the process of moving? Maybe. But this is no move up although I think it is to the east side. As in the east … Read more here…

Have a wonderful holiday friends…. For some insane reason, I can’t get the above song out of my head even … Read more here…
Join an at-home MS study and receive $50 for your time!

The memories of my grandmother’s sewing kit overtake my brain and not in a good way. It … Read more here…
An MS’er looks at the 80’s How do you describe an obnoxious, crazy, ridiculous, sometimes painful MS symptom that can’t be described? You revert back to your childhood. Or, your cousin’s… I was a child of the 80’s. Actually, that’s a lie. I was an incredibly awkward pre-teen of the 80’s and then a very … Read more here…
An MSer is sent down the tube, again and again and again… This is probably my most repeated blog post but the lessons remain.
